While this all comes as good news to Crimson fans, some Harvard players' spots on the team are now in jeopardy. Sophomore forward Chris Baird, sophomore forward Sean Wenham and freshman defender/forward Bryan Losinger have all received healthy minutes since the injuries.
Baird, in particular, has filled in nicely for Farrell on the second line.
"I have some tough decisions to make," Tomassoni said. "But they're good decisions. The kind of decisions you want to have to make."
New Coach for BC
Boston College announced yesterday that Steve Cedorchuk will take over for retiring Coach Len Ceglarski at the end of this season.
Athletic Director Chet Gladchuk said in a prepared statement, that Cedorchuk, currently an associate coach with the Eagles, "is the appropriate person to lead our program to the next level."
Ceglarski, the winningest coach in college hockey, will retire this year after 21 years at the helm of the BC program.
Hobey Baker Candidates
As the regular season winds down, the media blitz has already started for post-season awards. Yale has already started, touting forward Mark Kaufmann (17-18-35) as a candidate for the Hobey Baker award, given to the outstanding collegiate hockey player.
Harvard (which holds the record for most Hobey Baker winners) has no major contenders as it has in years past.
The player with the best chance of challenging for the award is goalie Allain Roy. Roy, currently the top goalie in the east, posts a 2.24 goals-against-average and a .914 save percentage.
